Estate of Memory

The Boston Globe called this novel of the Holocaust "gripping... masterful... disturbing and heartbreaking." This spiritual novel of growth and regeneration in the midst of brutality and death recreates in precise detail the daily lives of four women in a Nazi concentration camp, one of whom is not Jewish. The taste and feel of the days are palpable, and the pre-camp memories of the prisoners are woven brilliantly into the narrative. As Adrienne Rich notes, this is "a woman's eye view of living beyond the point where life is supposed to have meaning."Karmel, Ilona is the author of 'Estate of Memory' with ISBN 9780935312645 and ISBN 0935312641.
